It was in a parking lot and they said it was private property.. whatever. I was so tired from the night I was like "**** you, here's 200 bucks, take the boot off my car, and shove it up your ***.

Yeah, that's ****ty. Just be glad you were able to walk away with that small of a ticket. They probably could have nailed you for more. It's not uncommon in Chicago to hear of private parking areas doing that.

Vegas - isn't it required to be drunk by 9:30

I got pulled over in OH at 6 AM to see if I was drunk. OH requires a front mounted plate, which I could not do on my Evo - I had it in the front window though. That alone warrants the officer to pull over a car. And my car was done up in full AX mode - all the sponsor stickers, numbers, harness...

At a stop light making a left. Cop in on the intersecting street. I made my left. He made a U-turn. My father and I were off to get the car aligned. He was a little bothered to be getting pulled over for making a left.

In the end, the cop was cool, soon as he said hello he told us that he was just checking to see if I had been drinking. I laughed and mention that it was 6 am. Let us go.

4-6 AM is probably one of the best times out here to get people for DUI. They are usually headed home after a long night of partying.

Oh, I agree with the officers logic, just not the car. You'd be a massive idiot, well they do exist, to be driving in a loud, stickered up, race car and drunk, with your father, and in farm country

What's up everybody. I'm new to the forum, and I just picked up my Evo X about three weeks ago and it is my first Evo or Mitsubishi for that matter. I just wanted to introduce myself and also ask what dealership seems to have the best customer service and techs here in town. My car is affected by a TSB and I would like to get it taken care of, but I was just wondering which dealership everyone prefers here? Thanks,

Chris
